open your eyes a bit and search this forum.....LOTS OF POSTS ABOUT GAS MILEAGE available for all the new engines, which you also didnt specify.
but honestly if you have to ask...its a truck. dont expect 30 mpgs. expect 15-20 in the best and worst driving conditions.

Not so good MPG
I have the 3.7 v6 supercab with 3.73 axle. I can't seem to will the truck to get good city mpg. I have seen 22 mpg on the highway as long as you stay at 65 or under. In town though I am lucky to get 13.5 mpg. Typically 12 to 12.5. My truck has 3000 miles on it, and is only driven about 13 miles a day on average to work. Maybe 15-20 stop lights round trip and some moderate hill passing around a small mountain. Maybe 2% grade and less than two miles of it each way. I've tried selective shifting(not manual mode) to help the motor pull at low rpms and I frequently slip into neutral gowing down the hills (truck doesn't like to accel down hills in gear). If you let the truck idle it will suck your mpg rating down pretty quick. And I can't say enough that it sucks to drive around town at 35-40 mph pulling 1000-1500 rpm with no power and not able to increase mpg. That six speed really needs some better shifting parameters.

2011 Scab FX2, 5.0L 3.55 gears, 11,000 miles - Depending on speed , headwinds, terrain and how heavy your foot is... you'll get 12-17 city and 17-22 highway. I've even seen 24 mpg on a long 45-50 mph trip to Key West with my V-8.
Last fill up my average was 18.2 and that was 80% city.
Seriously, blackknight87 said it perfect - search the posts.

I'm getting 10mpg in my 04 Avalanche and was saving for one of these new F150's, but this thread is making me wonder if it's even worth it. I know it's a truck, but I would at least hope for the high teens in mpg
